Our Final Edited sequence

 

Editing

 The final part of editing the sequence was when we cleaned up our credits. We cleaned up the credits as when Adam watched them they looked very squashed. The credits also had some spelling mistakes. We cleaned up all of the spelling mistakes and after that it was mostly finished. We cleaned it up by changing the size of the aspect to 120%. We did change some names as well which was the director name. We changed the Director Name to Adam Evans because Geralt Forsworn was not good. We finished off by creating the title to the film. We called it "Welcome Home" It took some time to think of the name. We had some other names such as "She's Watching" and "Ghaulhost" Manor but we eventually settled on Welcome Home. Jana chose the font of the title by getting a font from online. We then changed the color of the title to blue. After we changed the color that was the end of the sequence. We did encounter one problem which was that all of the macbooks in the room switched off and we forgot to save and lost some of our progress like the title name, it was not much though and managed to finish it quickly.

Editing credits

 In Media we continued editing our sequence. The parts that we added to our sequence was the remaining credits. The credits that we added were all of the cast names the designer names and the sound names everything else that needed to be in the credits was there. I also had to move the credits into spaces because when we put them in the same spaces it got in the way of the cast so I put them in spaces where there were gaps and that were dark because the credit colour is white and it would be more visible if put in dark places. We finished off all of the credits and then that was the end.

Editing Again

 In Media we continued editing the opening sequence and learned how to add credits to the sequence. The first thing we did for editing the sequence was adjusting the audio and adding in the rest of the music. We fixed up the screaming part of the sequence. We also added in some clanking sound effects during the shot of the girl sitting and Adam touching her shoulder. This was done so we could communicate the location of the asylum. We had the a creepy build up sound during that part until Adam touched her shoulder and then we cut it back to the part when they start playing again. The last piece of sound that we added was at the very end of the sequence when we got that same build up sound and put t in and the very end when we see her in the window as the final part of the sequence before the opening title sequence ends. We did that and that was our opening title sequence completed.

 Next we learnt how to put credits into our sequence. So it was to go to premier pro and get the title cards and drag them on. We then were told to get the names very big in capital letters as they are important, and we were told to have them in the sequence long enough so that a slow reader ould read them three times before they disappear. We added our first credit to it which was peoples group presents. We then started adding our second credit which was something like JGK productions.

Editing

 Editing today In Media.

In Media Today we continued to edit our sequence. The parts we edited today was the end. We put together the rest of the sequence. So we started off by getting the final shots of them playing and one of them noticing the girl in the window. First we added in the shot of them playing on the grass, then there was then a shot of them looking up to the window and we had a close up of that specific shot so we used that close up when she looked in the window. 

We did encounter one problem with that specific shot. The problem was that when she looked up into the window, she looked back at the camera. We were able to cut that part out though by cutting out the part where she looks at the camera so it only shows her looking at the girl in the window.  We next added in the final moment when the window is empty as she dissapears after the girl looks at the window. We made some edits to it after by adding the empty window and then suddenly the girl appears. What we also did was extended the shot of the forest at the start. That was the whole sequence finished. At the end of the day I came back to continue editing it. I came to the editing suit and Tom was there. 

First we cleaned up the whole sequence by putting different shots together and removing some to make the sequence look a lot cleaner. We cleaned up the end of the sequence by adding the close up of the window in which made it look better. We also edited the begning of the sequence with the second shot of the forst and we edited it to show peasalke. I then cleaned up the sound of me and Janas voices whenevr we were talking to them. I cleaned up the shots that had really loud sounds of wind. He then changed the colors to some of the sequence by making some shots darker like the first establishing shot and the shots of the forest. After that we added in some music, we added in some creepy music throughout the sequence and then when we got to Adam talking in the car  he changed the volume of the girls speaking as it was too loud. We got to the part where they arrive at the house and extened the car noise as we got rid of some sound of wind so we put in the car noise to have some sound playing. We then had the music continue playing and we got to the part when Adams daughter was sitting on the floor and we stopped the music. We then added some sounds of screaming. That is all we got up to. 

Credits and Film Logos

The title credits are used in films or in many sorts of media such as TV shows, are used in order to credit the people that worked on the product. There are different ways that they are implemented in sequences that fit the film. Some films might have no credits. An example of a film with no credits was the Disney film, Fantasia which was the first film in color to not have any credits included in it. There are some films that just use title credits and no closing credit, this happened in the past a lot. There are films with no title credits but an extensive ending credits. One of the first films to have no title credits and just ending credits was west side story. 

Our type of film is a horror film. There are various title credit sequences that are in the horror genre. An example of this would be the film psycho which uses very unique opening titles. This sequence is very disjointed with multiple white bars separating communicating the type of film it is. Other type of horror sequences with our genre of films are films like IT. Newer films a lot of the time dont have specific title credit sequences and instead have the film play while the credits are in the background. IT does this. It has the only some of the credits in the background and saves the large quantity of credits for the ending of the film. 

The logos of film companies have evolved over time, becoming more modern and showing what type of company they are. An example of a company's logo evolving over time is the logo for Warner Bros. Below is both logos, the one in black in white is the older logo and the one on top is the newer logo. The one at the bottom just is a triangle with a building in the background and The words Warner Bros Production around it. The newer logo is much more modernized with access to colors as there is new technology allowing them to make a much better logo . Below the new logo is a golden shield with the WB Words in the middle and in between there is a banner saying Warner bros pictures surrounding the shield. This logo is a lot more unique and is noticeable so people would easy recognize the company immediately if they saw that Logo. This is an example of developing the film logo and making it more unique so it becomes iconic. 

Editing Today

 Today In Media we continued editing our title sequence. Me and Jana continued from the editing that I started yesterday. We added to it. The shots we added were the shots of them arriving, the shots of them playing, the shots of the girl and the shots of them playing again. The first shot was the shot of me with the camera filming Adam Talking. We added that into there, after that we added the close up of one of them in the car, they shot we added next was the shot of both of them talking while I was in the front seat of the car filming them. We then got the wide shot, shortened it, a little bit and then added it to the sequence. The next shot we got was the mid shot of peaslake and of them getting out of the car and going into the house. We shortened the part of them going into the house so we could get to the next angle from the shot from inside the house and them running inside. The next shot we got was the shot of the  living room and of them running inside and playing and then one of them getting the sheet and throwing it over the camera as a transition. We got that part in and then we got the shot transitioning into the girl sitting on the floor and it was here where we encountered our first problem. We wanted to do a wide shot of her sitting there and when Adam touched her shoulder switch to a close up. We wanted her head down and to lift it when Adam touched her shoulder. We got the close up of that, but we forgot to get the non close up of that shot. So Instead we ended up having to just have in the close up on her shoulder. After the shot we put in the shot where we cut to one of them touching each others shoulder and playing. We the encountered our next problem which was the shot of them playing, we had two shots of them playing, one with the girl in the window and one without, the problem was that it looked really weird when playing because it looked disjointed with the transition as we wanted to to cut to the shot of her in the window while they were playing but it wasn't the same and we tried to transition to when they went off screen in the first shot to when they came on screen in the second shot but it still looked bad.That is what we got up to.
